Jesus invites his followers to 'Take my yoke upon you and learn from me (Matthew 11:29).' This is a life of ongoing transformation, not merely by our own effort, but by welcoming Christ's Spirit to make us more like him. In every sense, we are Christians who are still becoming Christians. If there was a governing theme for the sermons, that seems to be it. Discipleship is a steady journey through the summer, when most of these lectionary texts are scheduled to be heard. Each text, like each sermon, is episodic. They proceed a step at a time. Yet each is an invitation to follow after Christ and to grow in grace. He is the one who revises our agenda, beckoning us repeatedly, 'Come, follow me.' So I offer these meditations on scripture as a resource for your spiritual journey. It's my privilege to share what I have heard the Risen Christ whisper to me through study and prayer, in the grand hope that we might grow in faith, hope, and love. My thanks are offered to the saints of First Presbyterian Church of Clarks Summit, PA, among whom I have served for many years. And I dedicate this volume to a great friend who has been my traveling companion for over three decades'.

The season of Easter and the message of the Resurrection inform us as to the meaning of Christianity. The season of Eastertide guides us in the daily living of a Christian life. Ron Love's latest book, What, Then, Would You Be Second Lesson Sermons for Lent and Easter, Cycle A covers the seasons of Lent, Easter, and Eastertide, actually tracing what it means to be a Christian. This series of sermons is based on the Lectionary readings from the Epistles. The Epistles stand as the most informative biblical passages on being a Christian. The first sermon asks the question 'What, then, would you be ' with the remaining sermons wrestling with the answer.
